Taylor Swift's birthday guest list revealed: Only close friends got in

Taylor Swift celebrated her 35th birthday in spectacular style, throwing an unforgettable Eras-themed party inspired by her record-breaking world tour. The bash was as grand as her career, featuring nods to each of her musical "eras" and a star-studded guest list that included NFL icons, WAGs, and her closest friends.

This celebration came just days after Swift concluded her monumental 149-concert Eras Tour, which grossed over $2 billion worldwide. Despite reports that she was "exhausted" after her global trek, the singer-songwriter showed no signs of fatigue as she partied with her inner circle.

The guest list

Only Swift's closest friends and loved ones scored an invite to this intimate gathering. Among them were NFL royalty Patrick and Brittany Mahomes, Chiefs WAG Lyndsay Bell, longtime friend Ashley Avignone, and, of course, her boyfriend, Kansas City Chiefs tight end Travis Kelce.

Brittany Mahomes embraced the Eras theme wholeheartedly, dressing in a silver fringed dress and sparkling knee-high boots, an homage to Swift's "Fearless" era. Meanwhile, Patrick channeled the "Tortured Poets Department" era, donning a black tuxedo and top hat-a look inspired by Swift's male backup dancers during her three-hour concert.

Bell, wife of Chiefs tight end Blake Bell, added her own flair to the Eras-themed night. She arrived in a glitzy pink jacket and skirt reminiscent of Swift's vibrant "Lover" era. Bell has grown close to Swift and Mahomes since Swift began dating Kelce in mid-2023. Her look was a playful nod to one of Swift's most colorful and joyful musical eras.

A longtime friend of Swift since 2008, stylist Avignone was also in attendance. She embraced the "Reputation" era with a clever twist, sporting a stuffed snake around her neck-a clear nod to the era's iconic imagery.

Avignone, who is rumored to have met Swift through their mutual friend, actress Emma Stone, has been spotted at several Chiefs games alongside Swift. She even attended the 2024 Super Bowl as a guest of the pop star.

While Travis Kelce didn't appear in any of the photos shared by guests, insiders confirmed his significant role in organizing the evening. Sources told Page Six that Kelce pulled out all the stops to ensure the night was nothing short of magical for Swift.

"Taylor and Travis are always surrounded by a ton of people, so it was really important that this celebration be different for Taylor," shared a source.
